SenseiXS updated [XenSupport] Spotlight with a new update entry:

News & Fixes

New

• Exclude members by username: you can now keep a specific member off the spotlight by their username, no need to deal with user group IDs. Handy for excluding yourself, or any member whose group is otherwise eligible.
• Excluded members are now also hidden from the Contenders list.

Fixes

• A member you just excluded who was already the current spotlight is now replaced automatically on the next run, even with "Lock winner" enabled (before, they could stay...

Any chance this can be integrated with @DragonByte Tech Credits addon and the winner can be awarded virtual money?

Feel free to DM me for a dev license if the above request is something you’re interested in adding

Creating new event triggers is fairly easy as it uses the content type handler system in XenForo and Credits v7 (in public beta as of writing this) has fine grained control over what event settings are available.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the kind offer, I really appreciate it!
Adding event triggers for Credits is definitely something I’d be interested in exploring, it would be a great fit for what I’m building and would open up a lot of possibilities for users running both addons.
I’ll send you a DM to chat about the dev license and the integration. Good to hear the content type handler system makes it straightforward, and the fine-grained control in v7 sounds very promising.
Thanks again!
Best regards

SenseiXS updated [XenSupport] Spotlight with a new update entry:

1.0.14

The public page is no longer a flat profile card. The featured member steps onto a full-bleed stage with wash, orbs, beam, accent rail, avatar ring, optional quote, a stats dock, and CTAs that follow the active theme.

Contenders now use a masthead plus a top-3 podium and a ranked list from #4 onward, in the same visual language as Staff and Ping. History cards and the sidebar widget follow the same rules: a custom accent only when one is set, otherwise native XF tokens.

In the ACP...

SenseiXS updated XenSpotlight: an automatic member of the month, on a stage of their own with a new update entry:

One Spotlight per period, solutions counted on MySQL 8, install fixes

1.0.15. XenSpotlight 1.0.15 keeps one Spotlight per period, counts solutions on MySQL 8 again, and fixes the missing icons, the broken options link and the default permissions.

• The Spotlight is now picked once per period and stays for the whole day, week or month, however many times the cron runs. It no longer flips between two members on each run.
• A member set manually from the manager now stays in place until the next period instead of being replaced by the next cron...

SenseiXS updated XenSpotlight: an automatic member of the month, on a stage of their own with a new update entry:

Rebuilt on native XenForo: a fair weekly crown, a live race and a hall of fame

XenSpotlight 2.0.0 rebuilds the add-on on XenForo itself. Every 1.0 feature is still there, your spotlights, options and permissions move over on their own, and it is still free.

A fair crown, paid once

• Periods follow your forum's time zone: local midnight, Monday for weeks, the 1st for months, daylight saving included. In 1.0 they started at midnight UTC.
• The selection runs...

SenseiXS updated XenSpotlight: crown a member every week, from a race the whole forum follows with a new update entry:

Upgrade fixes for MariaDB and archive installs

XenSpotlight 2.0.1 fixes the upgrade from 1.0.x. On MariaDB servers it no longer stops with "Invalid default value for 'period_type'", and an upgrade with "Install/upgrade from archive" no longer stops on an "invalid callback" error on servers that cache PHP files (OPcache). The scheduled task and the API scope also have a proper name in the Admin CP.

If an upgrade to 2.0.0 stopped on one of these errors, nothing is lost: install the 2.0.1 archive over it, then click Upgrade next to...

2.0.2: no more credit in your footer

This update removes the "XenForo add-ons by ©XenSupport" line that XenSpotlight added to your forum footer, separator included. Nothing to configure: install the archive over the previous version from Admin CP > Add-ons and the line is gone once the upgrade has run.

The resource page now says so too: Visible branding: No.
